rhythm in the woods

"There is music in the meadows, in the air --Autumn is here;Skies are gray, but hearts are mellow,Leaves are crimson, brown, and yellow;Pines are soughing, birches stir,And the Gipsy trail is fresh beneath the fir.

There is rhythm in the woods, and in the fields,Nature yields:And the harvest voices crying,Blend with Autumn zephyrs sighing;Tone and color, frost and fire,Wings the nocturne Nature plays upon her lyre." --William Stanley Braithwaite, Lyric of Autumn
